Product reviews for Wood Pigeon
|
Although it looks fat, a Wood Pigeon's feathers actually weigh more than its skeleton! It's the largest and most common Pigeon in the UK and is easy to spot with its long tail, white wing markings and deep belly. They have a mauve pink breast with splashes of turquoise and white, and the sides and back of the neck are glossy green with a purple sheen. Females appear slightly thinner and paler than males but both have a reddish bill with a yellow tip. Juvenile birds have adult wing markings but no other patches of colour.
